About Aleksandra Szymanska

Aleksandra Szymanska grew up in Poland, surrounded by a family of hard-working farmers, equestrians, and all-around animal lovers.

This love and appreciation for animals was ignited alongside an affinity for art in Aleksandra from a very young age, and through her early days of sketching the family dogs, cats, and horses she unknowingly began down a path that would lead her to a career of art.

Aleksandra’s appreciation and love for animals continued as she grew, ultimately earning a psychology degree from Warsaw University before going on to work at horse-assisted therapy centers in Poland and then in the U.S.

There, she truly learned the healing powers of animal-assisted therapy and how loving animals like horses and service dogs have an unparalleled impact on the human condition of suffering and emotional distress.

This revelation inspired her to display the power of the human-animal bond through art. In this series of oil painting portraits, Aleksandra truly captures the essence of the unbreakable connection between humans and their pets.

Whether it be sadness, happiness, or an overcoming of fear, Aleksandra’s artistic expression and love for animals shines through in these custom portrait paintings of friends, family members, and even strangers.

Aleksandra believes that animals can truly transform the lives of humans, and she enjoys showing how these beautiful creatures have the ability to serve as “mirrors” of our emotions.

After earning a Master’s degree in Fine Arts with an emphasis on painting from the Academy of Art in San Francisco, Aleksandra’s full-fledged professional career has blossomed.
